BIKE NEW YORK

USA / New York | 2024.5.5 Sun

BIKE NEW YORK

One of the largest fun-ride events on the planet, with nearly 40,000 riders participating in Manhattan, New York. Starting in Manhattan, the tour will travel from Sixth Avenue through Central Park to the Bronx, Queens, and Brooklyn, and then to Statin Island, the festival site. This is why they call it the "FIVE BORO BIKE TOUR." The 40-mile (64 km) course, with few ups and downs and plenty of aid stations, is a great way to enjoy New York City to the fullest. This is a very satisfying event that allows you to ride through New York City in May in a fresh, city-like atmosphere.

It was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, one of America’s most famous architects. As you can imagine from […]

“Kramer vs. Kramer”
The moment I first rode a bicycle, who I was with.

There was a film movement called American New Cinema. It consisted of films released in the late 1960s to the 1970s such as “Easy Rider,” “The Graduate,” “Midnight Cowboy,” ” Close Encounters of the Third Kind,” and “Apocalypse Now.” Perhaps one of the reasons for the frequent use of young directors was the incorporation of messages or somewhat critical perspectives on society and politics, taking a different approach from traditional entertainment films. American New Cinema was enthusiastically supported by younger generations and had a significant influence on subsequent films. “Kramer vs. Kramer” (1979) is also a prod […]
